Worthy of all honor, glory, and praise from everything He has made
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”
Genesis 1:1
“Of old You founded the earth,
And the heavens are the work of Your hands.”
Psalm 102:25
“You alone are Yahweh.
You have made the heavens,
The heaven of heavens with all their host,
The earth and all that is on it,
The seas and all that is in them.
You give life to all of them,
And the heavenly host bows down to You.”
Nehemiah 9:6
“Yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom are all things and we are for Him;
and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we are through Him.”
1 Corinthians 8:6
There is only one true and living God—our God—eternally existing in three distinct persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. He is holy, sovereign, and the Creator of all things. All things were made by Him, through Him, and for Him. That includes me and you.
You were not made by chance. You were created by our Triune, Holy, and Perfect God. The entire creation exists to reflect His goodness and glory. He is not merely loving or powerful—He is thrice holy, absolutely righteous, and utterly just. He does not ignore sin, and all that He does is in accordance with His perfect will.
As our Holy Creator—and we as mere creatures—our only rightful response is to bow in worship, giving all honor, glory, and praise to the One who made all things according to His holy purpose.
Are you honoring the One who created you—living not for yourself, but in worship, praise, and awe of your Holy Creator?
Designed to reflect His holiness, righteousness, and glory
“Then God said,
‘Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness, so that they will have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.’
And God created man in His own image,
in the image of God He created him;
male and female He created them.”
Genesis 1:26–27
“Then Yahweh God formed man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being.”
Genesis 2:7
“When I see Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The moon and the stars, which You have established;
What is man that You remember him,
And the son of man that You care for him?
Yet You have made him a little lower than the angels,
And You crown him with glory and majesty!
You make him to rule over the works of Your hands;
You have put all things under his feet.”
Psalm 8:3–6
God did not merely create you to exist—He created you to represent Him. You were made in His image, set apart from all creation, and given the noble calling to reflect His character. To be human is to be designed for holiness, righteousness, and communion with God.
From the dust, He formed you. By His breath, He gave you life. He crowned you with dignity and entrusted you with the care of what He made. Every part of your being was meant to declare His glory and reflect His goodness to the world.
Are you living your life as one created to reflect the holiness and righteousness of your Creator?
We have rebelled against our Holy Creator, and we are without excuse
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”
Romans 3:23
“Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned—”
Romans 5:12
“Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,
And in sin my mother conceived me.”
Psalm 51:5
“For the wages of sin is death, but the gracious gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Romans 6:23
“All of us like sheep have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But Yahweh has caused the iniquity of us all
To fall on Him.”
Isaiah 53:6
“Against You, You only, I have sinned
And done what is evil in Your eyes,
So that You are justified when You speak
And pure when You judge.”
Psalm 51:4
“All of us have become like one who is unclean,
And all our righteous deeds are like a filthy garment;
And all of us wither like a leaf,
And our iniquities, like the wind, carry us away.”
Isaiah 64:6
“But more than that, I count all things to be loss because of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ,
and be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own which is from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God upon faith—”
Philippians 3:8–9
Though we were created in the image of our Holy God, we have all turned away from Him. Instead of living for His glory, we have lived for ourselves. The image of God in us has been marred—corrupted by sin—and this rebellion is not merely a mistake; it is treason against the King of all creation.
We are not sinners simply because we sin; we sin because we are sinners by nature. From the very moment of conception, sin has already corrupted our hearts. And as sinners, we are unable to produce anything that satisfies the demands of divine justice. Our good deeds cannot erase our guilt, and our best intentions cannot undo our rebellion.
To sin against an infinitely holy and righteous God is to bear an infinite guilt. The gravity of sin is not ultimately measured by how sinful we are in our own eyes, but by how holy God is. The punishment is severe not merely because of the nature or number of our sins, but because of the One against whom we have sinned—a thrice holy, righteous, and perfect God. Even the smallest blemish is a massive offense to Him. This is why the just punishment for sin is not temporary, but eternal—death, separation, and judgment under the wrath of God. And we have no power to escape it on our own.
Do we truly see the weight of our sin before our Holy God? Do we understand the justice we deserve—and our desperate, shared need for mercy that none of us can earn for ourselves?
The perfect life, atoning death, and victorious resurrection of our Lord and Savior
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.”
John 3:16
“But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
Romans 5:8
“For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, so that He might bring you to God, having been put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;”
1 Peter 3:18
“Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.’”
John 14:6
“Just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love.”
Ephesians 1:4
“That if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”
Romans 10:9
Our sin makes us enemies of God and deserving of His judgment. But in His mercy and great love, our Holy God has provided the only way for sinners like us to be forgiven and restored to Him.
That way is not through religion, rituals, or our own righteousness. It is through a Person—Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Fully God and fully man, Jesus lived the sinless life we failed to live, and then gave Himself as a sacrifice for our sins. On the cross, He bore the full weight of God’s wrath that we deserved.
He died, was buried, and on the third day, He rose from the grave—defeating sin and death. His resurrection is not just a miracle; it is the proof that the payment for sin was accepted. Jesus Christ is not one of many ways—He is the only way.
This salvation is not something we earn. It is a gift of grace received by faith alone. To believe in Christ is to turn from sin and trust entirely in what He has accomplished—His life, His death, and His resurrection—as your only hope for forgiveness and eternal life.
Do you believe this good news? Have you placed your faith not in yourself, but in Jesus Christ—our only Redeemer, our only Savior, and our only way to God?
God the Spirit gives new life, indwells, and keeps those who are in Christ
“Jesus answered and said to him, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.’”
John 3:3
“He saved us, not by works which we did in righteousness, but according to His mercy, through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,”
Titus 3:5
“In Him, you also, after listening to the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise,”
Ephesians 1:13
“Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will be careful to do My judgments.”
Ezekiel 36:26–27
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.”
2 Corinthians 5:17
We cannot come to saving faith on our own terms. We are totally corrupted—dead in sin and blind to spiritual truth. No one naturally desires God. No one seeks after Christ unless God the Holy Spirit first awakens the heart.
It is the regenerating power of the Holy Spirit that makes us spiritually alive. We must be born again—not improved, not inspired, but recreated from within. This new birth is not caused by us choosing God, but by God sovereignly renewing us, opening our hearts, and giving us the ability to believe. Only when the Spirit gives life do we truly come to faith in Jesus Christ.
We are born again to a new nature—a nature now alive in Christ Jesus. And when we believe, we are sealed with the Holy Spirit, marked as God's own, and kept by His power. This new birth is made manifest not just in a moment of belief but in a life that confesses—continuously and joyfully—that Jesus is Lord.
Have you been born again? Has the Holy Spirit opened your eyes and changed your heart, so that your life now declares, not just once but again and again: Jesus Christ is Lord?
We are no longer slaves to sin, but alive to righteousness as we grow in Christ
“Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”
Romans 8:1
“But now having been freed from sin and enslaved to God, you have your benefit, leading to sanctification, and the end, eternal life.”
Romans 6:22
“For as many as are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.”
Romans 8:14
“For it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure.”
Philippians 2:13
“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.”
Ephesians 2:10
The Christian life does not end with forgiveness—it begins with transformation. Those who are in Christ are not only justified; they are also being sanctified. The same grace that saves us also trains us to walk in holiness, fight sin, and grow in joyful obedience.
We are no longer slaves to sin. The Spirit who gave us new birth now leads us in newness of life. This does not mean we become perfect in this life, but it does mean we are no longer the same. The believer is being conformed to the image of Christ day by day, from one degree of glory to another.
Sanctification is not our own achievement. It is the work of God in us. Yet it is also a real calling to pursue righteousness, love what is good, and turn away from all that dishonors our Lord. Our freedom in Christ is not freedom to sin—it is freedom from sin, and freedom for the joy of holiness.
The joy of our salvation is not just that we are saved from hell—it is that we now walk with the One who saved us. We are His, and He is ours. This is the life we were meant to live: alive to God, bearing fruit, and growing in the knowledge of our Savior.
Is your life being shaped by the joy of your salvation? Are you walking in the freedom Christ purchased for you—with a heart that longs to grow in holiness and love for the One who gave Himself for you?
“And He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things passed away.”
Revelation 21:4
“And He who sits on the throne said, ‘Behold, I am making all things new.’ And He said, ‘Write, for these words are faithful and true.’”
Revelation 21:5
“For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord.”
1 Thessalonians 4:16–17
“But according to His promise we are looking for NEW heavens and a NEW earth, in which righteousness dwells.”
2 Peter 3:13
“For our citizenship is in heaven, from which also we eagerly await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform the body of our lowliness into conformity with the body of His glory, by His working through which He is able to even subject all things to Himself.”
Philippians 3:20–21
“And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, ‘Behold, the tabernacle of God is among men, and He will dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be among them,”
Revelation 21:3
“Just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love.”
Ephesians 1:4
The Gospel does not end with a better version of this world—it ends in the renewal of all things to the perfection God purposed from the very beginning, even before the foundation of the world. This is not merely restoration to Eden—it is the glorious consummation of God’s eternal plan: a redeemed people in perfect fellowship with their Creator, forever.
History is moving toward the day when Jesus Christ returns in glory to judge the living and the dead, and to restore creation under His righteous reign. For those who are in Christ, this is not the end—it is the fulfillment of everything we were made for.
Our salvation will be made complete: our bodies resurrected, our sin finally removed, our faith turned to sight, and our joy made full in the presence of the Triune God forever. He will make all things new. No more pain. No more curse. No more death. Only righteousness, glory, peace, and worship.
The purpose for which we were created—the image of God restored, the holiness we once rejected—will be fulfilled perfectly. And we will dwell with our God, face to face, forever.
Is your hope anchored not in this passing world, but in Christ—who is Himself our eternal hope and joy, and who will bring us into the glory of the new creation He has promised?
What will you do with the truth you've just read?
This Gospel is not just information—it demands a response.
Repent and believe the Gospel.
Turn from sin and trust entirely in Jesus—His life, His death, His resurrection—
as your only hope for forgiveness, true peace and joy in this life, and eternal life to come.
“That if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”
Romans 10:9
If the Spirit of God is opening your eyes and stirring your heart, hear His Word:
“Today if you hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts, as when they provoked Me.”
Hebrews 4:7
Come to Christ. Follow Him. Confess Him as Lord. If you believe in this Gospel message, pray to the Lord—confess your sins to Jesus Christ, the only true Lord and Savior.
“Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again; but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst—ever—but the water that I will give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up to eternal life.”
John 4:13–14
